bcdiogenes Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Man unharmed by exploding toilet (From the Press & Sun Bulletin) A 61-year-old Johnson City man said he wasn’t injured Wednesday when a toilet exploded with water and launched him against a wall. Richard Szymanski said he was using his son’s toilet at 69 Carlton St., Johnson City, when steam started coming out the toilet after he flushed. Before he could stand up the toilet shot out hot water and he was thrown a few feet into a shower wall. “It was kind of hot there for a minute,” said Szymanski. Szymanski said he was a little dizzy, but he didn’t think he was seriously injured. That’ was fortunate, considering he has stitches on his head from the removal of a cancerous tumor on Tuesday, he said. The Johnson City Fire Department responded quickly after receiving the 911 call at 6:43 p.m. Fire Capt. Rob Jacyna said a hot-water line broke. — Eric Reinagel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
